Description
The Golden Bowl by Henry James A searing study of marriage and infidelity, The Golden Bowl is a highly charged exploration of adultery, jealousy, and possession. Set in England, this novel delves into the complexities of relationships and the consequences of secrets revealed. Maggie Verver, a young American heiress, and her widowed father, Adam, lead a life of wealth and refinement in London. Their marriages to Prince Amerigo and Charlotte Stant, respectively, are about to become complicated by a shared secret that will have far-reaching repercussions for all involved. This new edition brings James's characteristic exploration of the battle between American innocence and European experience to a close, marking the end of a major phase in his career.
